This major reference collection presents in an accessible form the
key articles and papers on the theory and history of financial
crises. It includes both classic and contemporary writings on
domestic financial crises, the transmission of crises between
countries and the resolution of crises by both private and
government authorities acting as lender of last resort.The book is
divided into five sections. Section I on theories of financial
crises presents two rival approaches to financial crises; the
monetarist approach and the Fisher-Kindleberger-Minsky approach. It
also includes recent Rational Expectations approaches. Section II
contains readings on financial crises in US history while Section
III presents case studies for other countries. Section IV contains
readings on the international transmission of financial crises.
Section V concludes with a number of articles on the resolution of
financial crises. Financial crises have been a topic of perennial
interest - perhaps as old as economic science. This landmark book
makes a singular contribution by presenting the most significant
literature on this important topic in an accessible form.
